Brittany Begley is joining the KPRC 2 Houston weather team as the weekend morning meteorologist.
Khambrel Marshall announced his retirement in November 2023 officially signing off in December from that position.
"We are delighted to welcome Brittany Begley to the KPRC 2 family," said Bernice Kearney, News Director at KPRC 2. "Brittany approaches weather coverage through the prism of service to her community. Her passion, authenticity, and dedication to community service aligns perfectly with our core values at KPRC. She will be a marvelous addition to our team and will join our other meteorologists to provide unparalleled weather coverage and support to the Greater Houston area."
"And I’m so very grateful to play for team that aligns perfectly with my values, needs and goals," responded Begley on Facebook. "It’s the secret to inner and outer happiness."
She joins chief meteorologist Frank Billingsley, KPRC 2 News Today’s Anthony Yanez, and meteorologists Caroline Brown, Daji Aswad and Justin Stapleton.
Begley comes from KRON 4 San Francisco (see who left Houston for KRON), where she has been a freelance meteorologist since June 2022.
Called a “jack-of-all-trades” in her bio, there is truth to that as Begley was an anchor/meteorologist/reporter for ABC10 KXTV Sacramento, California, from 2018 to 2022.
KXTV is a TEGNA station, and so were Begley's previous stations, WBNS 10 Columbus, Ohio, where she was a traffic anchor/reporter, and WCNC Charlotte, North Carolina, where she was a social media host/traffic reporter.
In between the last two stations, Begley worked as a traffic reporter for WDTN 2 Dayton, Ohio.
She attended Winthrop University, Rock Hill, SC, and Mississippi State University.
Aswad was the previously newly hired meteorologist for Channel 2's weather department.
